975: Chapter 975: Found (Second update) _1 975: Chapter 975: Found (Second update) _1 “It’s impossible, the Palace Master is a true genius.
He will lead the Temple of Beasts to prosperity.
He can’t be gone.
Could there have been a mistake?”
“How can the news delivered by the Deputy Palace Master and the elders be wrong?
Alas, we thought that under the leadership of the new Palace Master, the Temple would enter a new era, but now it seems our hopes have been dashed.”
“The Palace Master is a real genius and has inherited from the forr palace master.
Given enough ti, he could have beco an emperor.
His loss is a grave misfortune.”
“The Palace Master sacrificed himself for the Temple of Beasts.
He is, and forever will be, the Palace Master of the Temple in my heart.”
…
A piece of news spread throughout the Temple of Beasts like a seismic shock, leaving every disciple of the Temple steeped in sorrow.
Long Yan is gone.
He had an accident while searching for resources.
The words were spoken by the elders, so they had to be true.
Whether it was his strength or talent, Long Yan had earned the acknowledgent of all the disciples as the true Palace Master.
His sudden loss left all the disciples in a state of depression.
In the courtyard where Long Yan resided, Li Xingyun, Li Yuanba, Lei Youyou, Mo Er, and Yu Wuxia sat together, each wearing a solemn expression.
As soon as Li Xingyun received the news, he ca here.
All five remained silent for a while.
The news had profoundly shocked them.
“What do you think of this news?”
Li Xingyun’s gaze eventually rested on Li Yuanba.
As the disciple of Long Yan, Li Yuanba naturally took the lead after Long Yan’s departure.
As Long Yan was the Palace Master of the Temple of Beasts, Li Yuanba was the young Palace Master.
“I am certain now that my Master has been imprisoned by Lan Tianming.”
Li Yuanba stated these words slowly.
He paused for a mont before speaking again, “Master is under Lan Tianming’s control.
Lan Tianming certainly wants to take possession of the Temple’s treasure vault.
He intentionally spread the news of Master’s demise, hoping to claim the position of Palace Master.
The Palace Master’s position and the treasure vault are exactly what he lusts for.”
“Master didn’t get where he is today by re luck.
He has faced all sorts of dangers and hardships.
Even if he truly entered the unknown, he wouldn’t fall so easily.
So, this is undoubtedly false news.”
“If nothing unexpected happens, Lan Tianming will soon hold another Ascension Ceremony in a couple of days.”
Li Yuanba’s talents in the Martial Path were exceptional, and his intuition was unusually sharp.
Li Xingyun and the others all gave a slight nod, concurring with Li Yuanba’s analysis.
“Are we just going to watch Lan Tianming ascend to Palace Master’s position?”
The prospect of Lan Tianming claiming the Palace Master’s seat was the last thing Li Xingyun wanted.
“If Lan Tianming truly intends to seize power, we must stop him.
Although Master is not here, I am.”
Li Yuanba declared in a cold voice.
No matter the cost, he would not let Lan Tianming achieve his goal.
He was not alone; he had the Zhenyang Sect behind him.
anwhile, Lan Tianming was discussing certain matters with Qi Feng and others.
“Master, the news has spread now, and the effect is more or less as expected, with no one doubting it.”
A man nad Zhang spoke to Lan Tianming, trying to win his favour with his flattering words.
“As long as they accept the fact, it will be easier to manage what follows.
Let them cool down for a couple of days, then we’ll find an excuse to officially hand over the position of Palace Master.
It’s all settled.”
Qi Feng and the others were wearing smiles on their faces.
Everything was under their control.
Lan Tianming was also smiling; he was about to fulfil his ambitions.
Both the position of Palace Master and the treasure vault were his for the taking.
“There are still a few malignant tumours in the Temple of Beasts.
They must be reluctant to see take the position of Palace Master.
When the ti cos, I won’t be able to act, but you all know what to do, right?”
Lan Tianming’s gaze hardened, a wave of icy light montarily sweeping across his eyes.
Of course, the “malignant tumours” that he ntioned were Li Xingyun, Li Yuanba, and the rest.
“Master, rest assured, at the Ascension Ceremony, as long as they show any hint of opposition, we will imdiately take action to kill them.”
Qi Feng said.
He and Li Xingyun were both Ancients.
If he faced Li Xingyun alone, he wouldn’t have much confidence in winning.
However, with the help of one or two Nirvana-stage allies, he was sure of success.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
The disciples of the Temple of Beasts had not yet fully recovered from their grief over the loss of Long Yan, when another shocking news spread like wildfire.
In three days, Lan Tianming will ascend to the position of the Palace Master.
The reason was simple – the Temple of Beasts couldn’t be without a leader.
For the Temple to avoid faltering, soone had to guide it.
The most suitable person was naturally Lan Tianming.
The disciples found the news sowhat surprising, but they could accept it.
After all, Lan Tianming was ant to be the Palace Master.
It’s just that an unfortunate event occurred due to the arrival of Long Yan.
In the past, Lan Tianming willingly gave up his position as Palace Master to Long Yan, which made the disciples accept him even more so.
…
“Fan Qing, Qin Ye, nearly a month has passed.
Has the Soul-Devouring Giant Gu taken control of Long Yan yet?”
A man in a black robe at the Nirvana stage asked Long Yan and Fan Qing.
On hearing this, Fan Qing beca anxious and looked at Long Yan.
“Fan Qing, what are you trying to do?
I helped you conceal the news, you wouldn’t turn against , would you?”
Long Yan took a step back and declared assertively.
“Qin Ye, you…”.
Upon hearing this, Fan Qing’s face turned pale.
Even if he was a fool, he could tell what this ant.
“Qin Ye, you’re kicking a man when he’s down!”
Fan Qing was so angry that the hairs on his back stood on end.
Long Yan ignored him, addressing the man in the black robe and saying, “Sir, Fan Qing was negligent for a mont, causing Long Yan to die in the Gu Pool.
Afraid of being punished by you guys, he has been withholding the news ever since and threatened into concealing it as well.
If you don’t believe , Long Yan’s corpse is in his Storage Ring.”
“What?”
Hearing this, the man in the black robe’s expression changed drastically.
His lofty aura imdiately enveloped Fan Qing, and he sternly said, “I told you all, you could only let the Soul-Devouring Giant Gu control Long Yan, not kill him.
You ssed up the Protector’s plan, now we’re all going to die!”
Under the imposing aura of the Nirvana expert, Fan Qing imdiately knelt on the ground.
He shot a hateful look at Long Yan, then said, “Sir, I was frad.
This was all Qin Ye’s idea.
He made to keep Long Yan’s corpse.
I was planning on telling you guys, but he wouldn’t let .
He even said sothing about fabricating Long Yan’s escape.
I was deceived by him.”
At this point, even if he was to die, Fan Qing wasn’t going to make it easy for Long Yan.
Like spilling beans, he began to recount everything, not daring to hide even the slightest detail.
